I have soft updates enabled on a fast machine at work.  make
installworld can fill up slash even though it has 15M free before the
install.  I think this is a bug in softupdates that it doesn't reclaim
space quickly enough or in overflow situations.

To work around it, I've used
        make INSTALL="/bin/sync && install"
or
        make INSTALL="/bin/sync && install -C"

Of course it takes longer this way, but it has worked 4 times in a row
where the last 20 make installworlds failed.
